  1. Mark Gonzales' White Sox mailbag

    When is MLB going to realize that they have to start preparing for a baseball expansion in Mexico and Cuba? They are opening next year in Australia but it would be so much better for both this country and Cuba to open in Havana. -- Charles Schwarz,...

  8. Whispers: Rays' Cobb making hitters daffy

    While <strong>Matt Moore</strong> has been more visible, right-hander <strong>Alex Cobb</strong> has been the Rays' best starter this season. He impressed the Tigers' <strong>Torii Hunter</strong> last week. "It felt like Bugs Bunny was pitching," he said. "When you swing, the ball just drops out of the zone. It's like it didn't want to get hit." &hellip; The Nationals believe <strong>Bryce Harper</strong> is dealing only with bursitis in his left knee, but he'll see surgeon <strong>James Andrews</strong> on Monday just to make sure. He has had persistent swelling that hasn't gone down with treatment. The Nationals were 25-18 with him in the lineup but entered the weekend 4-12 without him. &hellip; When the left-handed-hitting <strong>Carlos Gonzalez</strong> hit three home runs for the Rockies at Cincinnati on Wednesday, he hit an outside pitch to left, one over the middle to center and on one the inside corner to right. &hellip; <strong>Miguel Cabrera</strong> entered the weekend on pace to have 107 RBIs at the All-Star break, four more than anyone ever has had. <strong>Hank Greenberg</strong> had 103 as an All-Star in 1935. &hellip; Terrible luck for the Diamondbacks' <strong>Daniel Hudson,</strong> who suffered a second tear of his ulnar collateral ligament. The White Sox traded him for <strong>Edwin Jackson</strong> &mdash; a deal that looked horribly one-sided when Hudson helped Arizona reach the playoffs in 2011. &hellip; <strong>Corey Patterson's</strong> career may be over. The Mariners released the former Cubs first-rounder from Triple A, where he was hitting .175. &hellip; The Twins believe they can convince <strong>Kohl Stewart</strong> to pitch for them rather than back up quarterback <strong>Johnny Manziel</strong> at Texas A&amp;M next fall. He had 59 strikeouts and an 0.18 ERA in 40 innings at St. Pius X high in Houston. &hellip; The Royals took a good gamble in the draft, taking a lesser prospect (Stephen F. Austin shortstop <strong>Hunter Dozier)</strong> with the eighth overall pick so they could invest heavily in sliding Indiana State ace <strong>Sean Manaea</strong> with the 34th pick. Manaea was never right this season but showed in the Cape Cod League that he can be a dominator. They believe they can sign him. &hellip; The Mariners might deny drafting for need, but in New Mexico shortstop <strong>DJ Peterson</strong> and Stanford outfielder <strong>Austin Wilson</strong> they got advanced hitters who they hope eventually will help them stop being a punching bag. Some think Peterson could be a <strong>Troy Tulowitzki</strong> type run producer. &hellip; The Astros overlooked coach <strong>Mike Fox's</strong> overuse of lefty <strong>Kent Emanuel</strong> to take the North Carolina ace with the first pick of the third round. Fox had Emanuel throw 51 pitches in relief only two days after a 124-pitch start in the NCAA regionals. The situation was so dramatic that ESPN college baseball expert <strong>Kyle Peterson</strong> said pitch limits should be instituted, along the lines of ones in use in the Little League World Series and the World Baseball Classic.
